Tomcat's Tamiya 1/48 P-38F
I finally got around to digging out the grown up camera this weekend so here are the reveal photos for my Tamiya P-38F.

Re: Tomcat's Tamiya 1/48 P-38F
Indeed ! Marvelous build ! Sure took great picture with the grown up camera ! Better than what I can achieve with my damn iPhone with no surroundings to improve them.
Tamiya decals... it's bad ! Had problems with a big one on my P-47. And all the stencils on my current 1/72 F16 are just way too bad.
this one was a great build to follow. And as always, a marvelous paint job.

Thanks chaps
As I've said before this kit was an absolute pleasure to build - Mr Tamiya at his finest.
